Stiff clutch

Post by trigger26 »

Hi everyone new member here.

Just brought a polo gti on thursday well chuffed with it, but the clutch seems a bit stiff near the bottom of the travel any ideas what this could be.
If it a major thing i hope i will be able to get it done on the warranty.

cheers

clutch is heavy on mine too, i think its just a thing with the GTI's there is a theory that because of the heavy clutch it causes the pedal box to break.

If its not going into gear properly you need to get it looked at.

Im saving for a SACHS performance clutch kit to be fitted, according to a member on here they are light as a feather and transfer the power much better than the shiitty VAG one

Getting it into gear is not a problem its just the noise it makes, like it needs lubricating but the clutch cable is only a week old.
It looks as though the noise is actually coming from the clutch lever on the gearbox it like a squeaking noise.
Its just one of them annoying things that i need to get sorted.
